The 'K-Pop Demon Hunters' sensation continues globally with the animated film garnering immense success following its premiere on Netflix.
Not only has the film gained love for its storyline, but its original soundtrack has broken records on various music streaming platforms and music charts. So far, the 'K-pop Demon Hunters' soundtrack has amassed 96.33 million streams in the third week, with the breakout single "Golden," reaching number 1 on Spotify's global daily top songs chart.
On July 14, "Golden" broke another record, achieving a PAK (Perfect All-Kill). A song attains a Perfect All-Kill (PAK) when it rises to the top spot on all major South Korean music streaming platforms, including Melon, Genie, Bugs, FLO, VIBE, and YouTube Music, as well as claiming the number one position on Instiz's real-time and weekly iChart.
Since its release, the song has achieved unprecedented commercial and critical success, breaking multiple records across global music platforms and charts. What's surprising is that "Golden" has become the most-streamed hit globally from the soundtrack and the highest-charting song by a fictional female K-pop group in Spotify U.S. history.
Meanwhile, 'K-Pop Demon Hunters' follows a fictional K-pop group named HUNTR/X, consisting of three members who turn into demon hunters at night. They live a double life as top K-pop stars while protecting humanity from demons. The story unfolds when a rival boy band called Saja Boys emerges, but turns out they are a demonic faction, attempting to entice the world with their music and steal human souls.
